Deploying MashZone NextGen Artifacts and Other Metadata
You deploy specific artifacts and metadata from a source MashZone NextGen Server to a target MashZone NextGen Server using the export and import commands.
Important: You cannot use export and import commands when the MashZone NextGen version for the source and target MashZone NextGen Servers are different:
*For major upgrades, use the migrate command instead.
*For minor upgrades, please contact Technical Support or your Software AG representative.
In addition to the basic metadata for an artifact, a successful deployment must include related metadata, related files, extensions the artifact may use and any other artifacts that the artifact depends on.
The export and import commands automate deployment for most of this data, with some specific limitations that require manual deployment steps.
1. Export the specific artifacts that you want to deploy to another MashZone NextGen Server and any macros, pluggable views or pluggable libraries that they may use.
See the following topics for instructions using these MashZone NextGen export commands:
*Exporting Macros
*Exporting Pluggable Views or Libraries
*Exporting MashZone NextGen Global Attributes
*Exporting Users, User Metadata and Groups
2. Copy the files for any extensions used by the exported artifacts from the MashZoneNG-config folder for the source MashZone NextGen Server to the MashZoneNG-config folder for the target MashZone NextGen Server. See for a list of potential file-based extensions.
Note: The MashZoneNG-config folder may be an external configuration folder outside of the source and target MashZone NextGen Servers or it may be in the default locations. See Setting Up an External MashZone NextGen Configuration Folder for more information on MashZoneNG-config locations.
3. Define datasources in the Admin Console for the target MashZone NextGen Server with matching names and JDBC drivers to the datasources in the source MashZone NextGen Server.
See Manage data sources and drivers for instructions.
